UDavida wasebaleka esuka eNayothi eRama, wafika wathi phambi kukaJonathani: Ngenzeni? Isiphambeko sami siyini? Lesono sami siyini phambi kukayihlo ukuze adinge umphefumulo wami?
2 Hagi Jonatani'a kenona hunteno, Nenfa'a osizano ra zana magore huno nagritera eri frara nokiankino, kahe ofrigahie. Hagi na'a hanigeno nenfa'a kagri'ma kahe nanekea eri frara kigahie? A'o anara osugahie!
Wasesithi kuye: Kakube khatshana! Kawusoze ufe; khangela, ubaba kenzi ulutho olukhulu loba ulutho oluncinyane engakuvezi endlebeni yami. Pho, ubaba uzayifihlelani kimi linto? Kayisikho.
3 Hianagi Deviti'a hanave huvempage huno, Kagrama nagri'ma kavesinenantana zana negafa'a keno antahino hu'neno, agra nenamofo Jonatanina ama ana kema asaminugeno'a arimpamo'a knarera osugahie huno antahi'ne. Hianagi tamage huno kasefa huno mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo avufine kagri kavufinena huvempage huankino, nagrira ame huno nahe frigahie.
UDavida wasefunga futhi wathi: Uyihlo uyakwazi lokwazi ukuthi ngithole umusa emehlweni akho; ngakho uthi: UJonathani kangakwazi hlezi abe losizi. Kodwa ngeqiniso, kuphila kukaJehova njalo kuphila komphefumulo wakho, kukhona inyathelo nje phakathi kwami lokufa.
4 Higeno Jonatani'a Devitina asamino, Nazano hunanto hunka hanana zana, amane hugantegahue.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida: Lokho umphefumulo wakho okuloyisayo, ngizakwenzela khona.
5 Hagi Deviti'a Jonatanina asamino, Antahio, okina kasefa ika eme antegeno ne'zama nenaza knagi, nagra kini ne' ene ne'zana nosinagi natrege'na trampi ufraki'na mani'nanenkeno 3'a zagegnamo'a nagatereno evino.
UDavida wasesithi kuJonathani: Khangela, kusasa yikuthwasa kwenyanga; mina-ke ngifanele ukuhlala lokuhlala ukuthi ngidle lenkosi; kodwa ngiyekela ngihambe ngiyecatsha egangeni kuze kube lusuku lwesithathu kusihlwa.
6 Hagi negafa'ma onagesuno'ma kantahigena kagra amanage hunka asamio, Devitina naga'amo'zma Betlehemu kumate atru hu'za kafugu kafugu'ma nehazaza hu'za kresramama vanarega anantega vugahue huno eme tutu huno nantahigege'na huntogeno vu'ne hunka asamio.
Uba uyihlo engiswela lokungiswela, uzakuthi: UDavida ungicelile lokungicela ukuthi agijimele eBhethelehema umuzi wakibo; ngoba kukhona lapho umhlatshelo weminyaka ngeminyaka owenzelwe usendo lonke.
7 Hagi anagema hanankeno'ma knarere'ma hanigenka, eri'za vahekamona knare hu'na manigahue hunka antahio. Hianagi ananke'ma asami'nankeno arimpama ahe'na, eri'za vahekamo'na nahe frigahie hunka antahio.
Uba esitsho njalo: Kulungile; inceku yakho izakuba lokuthula. Kodwa uba ethukuthela lokuthukuthela, yazi ukuthi ububi buqondwe nguye.
8 Hagi kagra eri'za vahekamo'na knare kavukva hunante'nane. Na'ankure kagra Ra Anumzamofo avufi eri'za vaheka'amo'na so'ema huta manisu'a huvempagea hunante'nane. Hagi kagra navrenka negafantera ovunka, nagrama mago havizama hu'nenugenka, kagraka'a nahe frio.
Ngakho yenzela inceku yakho umusa, ngoba ulethe inceku yakho esivumelwaneni seNkosi lawe. Kodwa uba kulesiphambeko kimi, ngibulala wena; ngoba uzangiselani kuyihlo?
9 Higeno Jonatani'a huno, i'o anara osugahue. Nenfa'ma kahekema hanige'na ame' hu'na kasamigahue.
UJonathani wasesithi: Kakube khatshana lami! Ngoba uba bengisazi lokwazi ukuthi ububi buqondwe ngubaba ukuthi bukwehlele, mina bengingayikukutshela yini?
10 Anante Deviti'a Jonatanina asamino, Ana nanekema negafama asami'nankeno arimpama ahenantenia nanekea iza erino ome nasamigahie?
UDavida wasesithi kuJonathani: Ngubani ozangitshela uba uyihlo ekuphendula ngolaka?
11 Anagema higeno'a Jonatania Devitinkura huno, Egeta hoza agupofi magoka va'mneno, huno Jonatani'a higeke, magoka vu'na'e.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida: Woza siphume siye emmangweni. Basebephuma bobabili besiya emmangweni.
12 Anante Jonatani'a anage huno Devitina asami'ne, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamofo avufi huvempage huankino, tare knama evanige'na, nenfa'ma kahekema hania nanekea antahigahoanki'na, arimpa fruma hugante'nia kea eme kasamigahue.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida: INkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, lapho sengimhlolile ubaba phose ngalesisikhathi kusasa loba ngomhlomunye, uba, khangela, kukuhle kuDavida, uba ngingathumeli kuwe ngalesosikhathi ngikuveze endlebeni yakho,
13 Hianagi nenfa'ma kahenaku'ma hanige'na, eme okasami'nugenka frenka kagu'ma ovazisankeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a nagrira nona hunanteno nahe frigahie. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a nenfa'enema nemaniaza huno kagri'enena manigahie.
kayenze njalo iNkosi kuJonathani, langokunjalo yengezelele. Uba ububi phezu kwakho bulungile kubaba, ngizakuveza endlebeni yakho, ngikuyekele uhambe ukuze uhambe ngokuthula. Njalo iNkosi ibe lawe njengoba yayilobaba.
14 Hagi kagrima Ra Anumzamo'ma knarema hugantenigenka maninka vanunka, nagrira knare hunantenka nahe ofriho.
Kawuyikungenzela yini umusa weNkosi, ngitsho, nxa ngisaphila, ukuze ngingafi,
15 Hagi Devitiga ha' vahekamofoma ama mopafinti'ma Ra Anumzamo'ma zamahe vagamaresigenka, nagri nagara knare kavukva huzmantenka vuo.
kodwa kawuyikuquma umusa wakho usuke endlini yami kuze kube phakade, njalo hatshi lapho iNkosi isiziqumile izitha zikaDavida, zisuke ngulowo lalowo ebusweni bomhlaba.
16 Anante Jonatani'a Devitinkura amanage hu'ne, kagrane amama huvempa kema hu'a nanekea kagrane nagakanena tamagera okaniho. Hagi nagri'ma navesiana ha' vaheka'a Ra Anumzamo'a Agra'a hara huzmantesie.
Ngokunjalo uJonathani wenza isivumelwano lendlu kaDavida, esithi: INkosi kayikubize esandleni sezitha zikaDavida.
17 Hagi Jonatani'a mago'ane tragoteke manisa'a huvempage Devitina hunte'ne. Na'ankure Jonatani'a agra'agu'ma ave'nesiaza huno Devitina tusiza huno avesi ante'negu anara hu'ne.
UJonathani wasephinda wamfungisa uDavida ngenxa yokumthanda kwakhe; ngoba wayemthanda njengoba ethanda umphefumulo wakhe.
18 Anante Jonatani'a Devitina asamino, Okina kasefa ikante'ma musenkase hu'za ne'za nenaza knagino, ana musenkasema hanafina kagri tramo'a amane megahie.
UJonathani wasesithi kuye: Kusasa yikuthwasa kwenyanga, njalo uzaswelwa ngoba isihlalo sakho sizakuba size.
19 Hagi nampa 3 knazupa kinaga, ko'ma frakinkama mani'nana have kevuma me'nerega ame hunka umanio.
Usuhlale insuku ezintathu uzakwehla masinyane, uze endaweni owacatsha khona ngosuku lwendaba leyo, uzahlala eduze lamatshe e-Ezeli.
20 Hagi nagra 3'a kevea mafe'ante'na ana haverega ahetregahue.
Mina-ke ngizatshoka imitshoko emithathu eceleni, kungathi ngitshoka ibala.
21 Hagi mago eri'za rise'ma hunte'na kamakaziga keveme'neanki ome hakenka erinka eno hu'na huntesogenka, amne egahane. Na'ankure tamage huno Ra Anumzana mani'negu mago kazeri haviza hu'zana kagritera forera osugahie.
Khangela-ke, ngizathuma umfana ngithi: Hamba uyeyidinga imitshoko. Uba ngisithi lokuthi emfaneni: Khangela, imitshoko inganeno kwakho, ithathe, ubuye; ngoba kulokuthula kuwe, njalo kakulandaba, kuphila kukaJehova!
22 Hianagi ana riseku'ma hu'na kevea kame kaziga me'neanki ome erio hanugenka, e'i ame hunka atrenka vuogu hugahue. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo omenka vuo huno hugantegahie.
Kodwa uba ngisitsho njalo ejaheni: Khangela, imitshoko ingale kwakho; hamba ngoba iNkosi ikuyekele uhambe.
23 Hagi kagrane nagranema huvempa kema hu'noa zamofona Ra Anumzamo'a agrake keno antahino hu'negu kagra ana kemofona amage'anto.
Mayelana lendaba esikhulume ngayo mina lawe, khangela, iNkosi iphakathi kwami lawe kuze kube nininini.
24 Hagi Deviti'a anantega frakino mani'negeno, kini ne'mo'a kasefa ikante'ma musenkase hu'za ne'zama nenaza knarera ne'zama nenaza tratera emani'ne.
Ngakho uDavida wasecatsha emmangweni. Isithwasile inyanga, inkosi yahlala ekudleni ukuze idle.
25 Hagi kini ne'mo'a ne'za nenaku ko'ma nehiaza huno nomofo asarega amagena renteno rutragoteno emanigeno, mago kaziga Jonatani mani'geno, mago kaziga Abna mani'neanagi Devitima nemania trara amne me'ne.
Inkosi yasihlala esihlalweni sayo njengezikhathi ngezikhathi, esihlalweni eduze lomduli; uJonathani wasesukuma, loAbhineri wahlala eceleni kukaSawuli; kodwa indawo kaDavida yayize.
26 Hagi Soli'a ana zupa nanekea osu'ne. Na'ankure agrama agesama antahiana Deviti'a mago'aza huno agra'a azeri pehana hu'neno ome'ne huno antahine.
Kodwa uSawuli katshongo lutho ngalolosuku; ngoba wathi: Okuthile kumehlele; kahlambulukanga, isibili kahlambulukanga.
27 Hianagi nampa 2 kna zupanena Deviti'ma nemania tramo'a amne me'ne. Ana higeno Soli'a nemofo Jonatanina asamino, Devitima nemania tramo'a amne me'neana na'agafare Jesi nemofo Deviti'a okine meninena ne'za ne'tratera ome'ne?
Kwasekusithi kusisa, ngolwesibili lokuthwasa kwenyanga, indawo kaDavida yayize. USawuli wasesithi kuJonathani indodana yakhe: Kungani indodana kaJese ingezanga ekudleni ngitsho izolo lalamuhla?
28 Higeno Jonatani'a kenona huno, Deviti'a Betlehemu vunaku tutu huno nantahigeno,
UJonathani wasephendula uSawuli wathi: UDavida wangicela lokungicela ukuthi aye eBhethelehema.
29 natrege'na va'neno, na'ankure naga'nimo'za rankumapi kresramana nevazageno, nafuhe'za ke hazanki'na ame hu'na vugahue. Hagi navesi nante'nunka hunantege'na nafuhei'na ome zamage'nue hige'na, huntogeno vu'ne. E'i ana agafare ama tratera omani'ne.
Wasesithi: Akungivumele ukuthi ngihambe; ngoba usendo lwakwethu lulomhlatshelo emzini, lomfowethu ungilayile. Khathesi-ke uba ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, ake ngikhululeke ukuthi ngiyebona abafowethu. Ngenxa yalokho kezanga etafuleni lenkosi.
30 Hagi Soli'a Jonatanina tusi arimpa ahenenteno anage hu'ne, Kagra keontahi savri a'mofo mofavre mani'nananki, Devitima kagri noma erino kinima manino kazeri kagaze nehuno, negrerama agazema eri amisia zankura ontahinka Devitina aza hu'nano?
Khona intukuthelo kaSawuli yamvuthela uJonathani, wathi kuye: Ndodana yomfazi owonakeleyo lovukelayo! Kangazi yini ukuthi uyikhethile indodana kaJese, kube lihlazo lakho, njalo kube lihlazo lobunqunu bukanyoko?
31 Na'ankure Jesi nemofo'ma ofri'noma mani'nenigenka, tamagerafa hunka kinia omanigahane. Hagi mago'a vahe huzmantege'za vu'za ome avre'za esnage'na ahe fri'neno.
Ngoba zonke izinsuku indodana kaJese iphila emhlabeni, kawuyikuma wena lombuso wakho. Ngakho-ke thuma umlethe kimi, ngoba uyindodana yokufa.
32 Hianagi Jonatani'a huno, Naza agra havizana hu'ne? Nagafare agra frigahie?
UJonathani wasephendula uSawuli uyise wathi kuye: Uzabulawelwani? Wenzeni?
33 Anagema higeno'a Soli'a Jonatanina ahe frinaku karugru kevereti re'neanagi, mani'ganegeno hantga hu'ne. E'inama higeno'a tamage nenfa'a Devitina ahe frigahie huno Jonatani'a antahi'ne.
USawuli wasephosa umkhonto kuye ukumtshaya. Ngalokho uJonathani wakwazi ukuthi kwakuqondwe nguyise ukumbulala uDavida.
34 Hagi Jonatani'a nefana tusi arimpa ahenenteno ese ikamofona nampa 2 knarera, ne'zana oneno otino atreno vu'ne. Na'ankure nefa'ma Deviti agima eri havizama hiazanku anara hu'ne.
Ngakho uJonathani wasuka etafuleni ekuvutheni kwentukuthelo, njalo kadlanga ukudla ngosuku lwesibili lokuthwasa kwenyanga, ngoba wayedabukile ngoDavida, ngoba uyise emyangisile.
35 Hagi anante nanterana Jonatani'a mago eri'za rise nevreno Deviti'ene keaga ome hunaku kema hunte'nate hoza agupofi vu'ne.
Kwasekusithi ekuseni uJonathani waphuma waya emmangweni ngesikhathi esimisiweyo loDavida, lomfanyana elaye.
36 Hagi ana eri'za risera asmino, Kagarirenka vunka kevema ahetrenua kevea ome hakenka erio, higeno ana rise'mo'a agareno nevigeno Jonatani'a kevea ana risera ahe agatereno ogamanu'a avuga ahe'ne.
Wasesithi emfaneni wakhe: Gijima, ake udinge imitshoko engiyitshokayo. Umfana wagijima, yena wasetshoka umtshoko ukuze umedlule.
37 Hagi ana eri'za rise'mo'ma kevema ome akasinaku anante'ma vigeno'a, Jonatani'a ke'zatimino, Kevemo'a ogamu'a me'neanki,
Lapho umfana esefikile endaweni yomtshoko uJonathani awutshokileyo, uJonathani wamemeza emva komfana wathi: Umtshoko kawuphambi kwakho yini?
38 omaninka ame hunka vuo! Hagi Jonatani eri'za rise'mo'a ana kevea ome erino ete rukrahe huno kva'amofontega e'ne.
Njalo uJonathani wamemeza emva komfana wathi: Phangisa, ukhawuleze, ungemi. Umfana kaJonathani waseyiqoqa imitshoko, wabuya enkosini yakhe.
39 Hagi e'i ana mikozama hiazamofo agafa'a ana eri'za risemo'a antahi amara osu'neanki, Jonatanike Devitike zanagrake antahi'na'e.
Kodwa umfana wayengazi lutho, kuphela uJonathani loDavida babelwazi udaba.
40 Hagi Jonatani'a ati'ane keve'anena ana eri'za risemofo nemino, erinka kumatega vuo.
UJonathani wasenika umfana owayelaye izikhali zakhe, wathi kuye: Hamba, uzise emzini.
41 Higeno ana eri'za rise'ma vutegeno'a, Deviti'a have kevumofo amefima fraki'nefintira atiramino eno Jonatanina agafi eme arena reno, 3'a zupa kepri hu'ne. Hagi zanagra onuki, anuki huke zanagi ohene ahene nehu'ne, taregamokea zavi ate'na'e. Hianagi Deviti'a tusiza huno zavira ate'ne.
Esehambile umfana, uDavida wasukuma ngaseningizimu, wathi mbo ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, wakhothama kathathu; basebesangana, bakhala inyembezi omunye lomunye, uDavida waze wedlulisa.
42 Hagi Jonatani'a amanage huno Devitina asmi'ne, Karimpa frune vuo. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamofo avure huvempage hu'noankita ronema huno'azana, Ra Anumzamo amu'nontifina mani'neno maka knafima kagripinti'ma fore'ma hania vahe'ene nagripinti'ma fore'ma hania vahera keno antahino hanie. Hutegeno Deviti'a nevigeno, Jonatani'a ete kumatega vu'ne.
UJonathani wasesithi kuDavida: Hamba ngokuthula; lokhu esikufunge sobabili ngebizo leNkosi, sisithi: INkosi ibe phakathi kwami lawe, laphakathi kwenzalo yami lenzalo yakho, kakube kuze kube nininini. Wasesukuma wahamba, loJonathani waya emzini.
